Should I be peeling? Vivier chemical peel

April 10, 2017
Asked By:skinlover90 in Vancouver, BC

Got a peel on Saturday (today is monday) and I've noticed my skin feeling tight (a dry tight) but no flaking or peeling. I look tanned too. avoiding direct sun and wearing sunscreen with spf 30. The medical esthetician said i would see flaking or peeling and not touch it. I havent noticed anything of the sort. very worried about hyperpigmentation because I am olive skinned. Do I have anything to worry about? Received a vivier skin peel with 2% salicylic acid 10% lactic acid and 14% Resorcinol:
